You're fine. They're cosmetic trims only.

J's auto electrical in Bristol. Been using him for about 10 years.

That's a UCH fault for sure. ^^ I got mine repaired, cost me £45 all in. (£25 for a used UCH, £20 for an auto electrician to swap the damaged part over with some epic soldering skills)

I read that as £190, plus the £100 as a deposit.

How much does Snappy charge?

Did you pcp it in the end? What you doing with your Beemer?

I love F-types! Sadly I don't like red. Or convertibles. Or those wheels. But I do like Jag F-Types.

If it was a disabled driver, I can't imagine lower and stiffer suspension was a concern of theirs.

It was in Freds report.

If that is indeed VO54FFS, it's got the wrong engine in it. And under the dash has been chopped about to accommodate disability controls. Wish your friend luck from all at CS.net.

Mine was GU60UBW. I bloody loved that car.

Aha, so you have a Clio 200 with cup pack. (Red calipers, better suspension and iirc, a quicker steering rack) Much better to have that than a proper Cup with no creature comforts.

Is it an actual 200 cup or a 200 with cup pack? (Apologies if that sounds patronising) Cups have manual mirrors, no 60/40 split rear seat, black plastic side strips and mirrors. Air con was also an option.

Looks to have been modded, gloss black mirrors and colour coded side strips? Lovely either way. I had a storm grey cup in 2010.

That's all well and good but considering most belt failures are due to the tensioners seizing, it's a pretty pointless effort.

On a V6 I'd take a bet that a coil is about to s**t itself.

I just thought 'Christ, that's the most oil free engine I've ever seen'.

Trophy all day long.

My mates dad (who came and bought your ramp) said back in the day, he was buying mk1/mk2 escorts for £80-100 and selling them on for £250-300. And lots of them. Said it's his biggest regret not keeping any of them.

We use autosmart clay cloths at work. New Gen BMW paint is ludicrously soft and these mits don't leave marring.

Good stuff.

E46 (or any BMW of that era) have utterly useless audio systems, HK upgrade or not.

Was it Phoenix alloys that did them?

My mate is a manager for BSCL communications. His dad owns it. Another two mates work there. Google them. They should be reputable.

Depends what diagnostic equipment they have and how good they are at using it! Lol

Throttle bodies are £30 ish second hand and pedals are under £20. Certainly not the end if the world but as I said, I'd get it properly diagnosed before you fork out any money.

Sounds like a naff throttle position sensor. If you live near anyone with Clip though, get it plugged in before you spend any money though.

Lol!! That's a proper cheap car.

I had one and it lasted about 4 days. Great cars but you have to be doing stupid speeds to really enjoy it. And I quite like my license.
